letra de the riot grrrl manifesto - kathleen hanna
because us girls crave records and books and fanzines that speak to us that we feel included in and can understand in our own ways
because we wanna make it easier for girls to see/hear each other’s work so that we can share strategies and criticize/applaud each other
because we must take over the means of production in order to create our own meanings
because viewing our work as being connected to our girlfriends-politics-real lives is essential if we are gonna figure out how what we are doing impacts, reflects, perpetuates, or disrupts the status quo
because we recognize fantasies of instant macho gun revolution as impractical lies meant to keep us simply dreaming instead of becoming our own dreams and thus seek to create revolution in our own lives every single day by envisioning and creating alternatives to the bullsh-t christian capitalist way of doing things
because we want and need to be encourage and be encouraged in the face of all our own insecurities, in the face of beergutboyrock that tells us we can’t play our instruments, in the face of “authorities” who say our bands/zines/etc are the worst in the us and who attribute any validation or success of our work to girl bandwagon hype
because we don’t wanna -ssimilate to someone else’s (boy) standards of what is or isn’t good music or punk rock or good writing and thus need to create forums where we can recreate, destroy and define our own visions
because we are unwilling to falter under claims that we are reactionary “reverse s-xists” and not the truepunkrocksoulcrusaders that we know we really are
because we know that life is much more than physical survival and are patently aware that the punk rock “you can do anything” idea is crucial to the coming angry grrrl rock revolution which seeks to save the psychic and cultural lives of girls and women everywhere, according to their own terms, not ours
because we are interested in creating non-heirarchical ways of being and making music, friends, and scenes based on communication + understanding, instead of compet-tion + good/bad categorizations
because doing/reading/seeing/hearing cool things that validate and challenge us can help us gain the strength and sense of community we need in order to figure out how bullsh-t like racism, able-bodieism, ageism, speciesism, cl-ssism, thinism, s-xism, anti-semitism and heteros-xism figures in our own lives
because we see fostering and supporting girl scenes and girl artists of all kinds as integral to this process
because we hate capitalism in all its forms and see our main goal as sharing information and staying alive, instead of making profits or being cool according to traditional standards
because we are angry at a society that tells us girl = dumb, girl = bad, girl = weak
because we are unwilling to let our real and valid anger be diffused and/or turned against us via the internalization of s-xism as witnessed in girl/girl jealousies and self defeating girltype behaviors
because self-defeating behaviors, like f-cking boys without condoms, drinking to excess, ignoring true-soul girlfriends, belittling ourselves and other girls, would not be so easy if we lived in communities where we felt loved, and wanted, and valued
because i believe with my wholeheartmindbody that girls const-tute a revolutionary soul force that can, and will change the world for real
